Paula Deen has Diabetes

In case you haven’t heard, it was announced last week that celebrity chef, Food Network personality, and author Paula Deen was diagnosed with diabetes and has been secretly living with the condition for three years. I know that there are a lot of folks who struggle with this disease, and please hear me when I [...]

Really? This is Selling?

My wife showed this photo to me the other day over lunch. I almost choked… Wow. Do we really wonder why we as a nation, are the fattest country in the WORLD? Because we shouldn’t wonder anymore. QUESTION: What other “convenient inventions” have you seen that, in reality, aren’t good for us?    

Drink More…Pee Less: The Key to Hydration

I’m guessing that title has you a little curious. I’m sure that you’re thinking that by drinking more, you’ll have to urinate more, but that’s not exactly true. I’m sure that if you were to drink three large glasses of water right now you would, no doubt, have to run to the restroom within the [...]

BE WARNED: This post may ruffle a few feathers, and I hope it does. For the record, I have voted Republican in every election in which I’ve voted.

The Chicken or the Egg

It’s the preverbal question, right?  And, with the recent egg recall, that question is now at the forefront of everyone’s mind.  My question is, how did we get here?  How is it possible that a country as technologically advances as the USA can let this happen?  The current egg recall is for half a billion [...]

The Vitamin D Deficiency

I read an interesting article from msnbc.com today about pregnant women and the link between preeclampsia and low levels of vitamin D. I find it interesting because I believe that as a society, we are chronically deficient of vitamin D.  Many doctors and researchers have long suggested that low levels of vitamin D can lead [...]

Apparently our Kids are Conveniently Fat

I have a lot of things swirling in my head after reading this from yahoo.com: ATLANTA – Health officials say one reason so many American kids are overweight is that few have a nearby place to play and exercise. Only about one in five homes have parks within a half-mile, and about the same number [...]
